Ubiquiti LiteBeam 5AC: Cost-Effective High-Gain Outdoor airMAX ac CPE

In outdoor wireless service provider (WISP) networks, remote building bridging, and long-range point-to-point (PtP) connectivity, deploying lightweight, high-gain directional subscriber units with superior noise immunity is essential. The Ubiquiti airMAX LiteBeam 5AC (LBE-5AC-Gen2) is a versatile 5 GHz outdoor wireless station designed to provide long-distance connectivity with minimal wind loading.

High-Gain InnerFeed Antenna and airMAX ac Throughput

Featuring Ubiquiti's proprietary InnerFeed technology, the LBE-5AC-Gen2 integrates the radio feedhorn directly into the dish antenna, eliminating coaxial cable loss and maximizing RF efficiency. Operating on the 5 GHz band with proprietary airMAX ac protocol support, it delivers high-throughput data rates across flexible channel bandwidths (up to 80 MHz in PtP mode and up to 40 MHz in PtMP mode).

Dedicated Management Radio and Lightweight Design

The LiteBeam 5AC Gen 2 incorporates a dedicated 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi management radio, allowing network installers to quickly configure, align, and manage the device using the UISP mobile app on smartphones or tablets. Weighing just 800 grams without mount, its modular assembly enables fast, tool-less deployment and features separate azimuth and elevation adjustments for precise antenna alignment.

Rugged Weatherproof Construction and Passive PoE

Built to withstand outdoor environments, the CPE features UV-stabilized polycarbonate enclosure housing and SGCC reflector panels rated for wind survivability up to 200 km/h (125 mph). Powered via 24V 0.3A Gigabit Passive PoE (adapter included) with a maximum power consumption of only 7W, it provides reliable performance under extreme outdoor temperatures from -40 to 70° C.
